Volk is probably expecting a rematch too. If there ever a poll about who should get an immediate rematch between Oliveira and Volk, Volk will likely win more votes. Their fight will keep you sit in front of the monitor savoring each hit. But also unsure how it will end.

But I hope Volk can prepare well for this fight. Volks tough hope he wins this time so there will be another Islam vs Volk III.

It is true that there is no video that shows in detail the significant changes in McGregor but at least there have been some changes in McGregor physique in recent years while he was not a UFC fighter.
It should be noted that McGregor uses several of these drugs according to doctor recommendations or supervision so there is no prohibition against their use but after deciding to return to fighting he has carried out several tests and even given up all types of drugs that he previously consumed.
Concerning McGregor physique he experienced changes because trained more often and went to the GYM to develop his body muscles and for almost three years he retired from UFC so he focused on healing the injuries he experienced and with some time this was enough to make the changes.

There is nothing wrong with McGregor and he can still continue fighting as stated by Dana White as UFC president.

FFS!

Recent news, Oliveira is out from ufc 294 due to an eye injury. And guess who has replaced Oliveira Their fight that got a controversal result in the past. I am speaking about battle dwarf - Alex Volkanovski. Wow! What a surprise. UFC hit perfect with such replacement. To bad, it might be a really short notice for Volkan.

Another lose is guaranteed for McGregor, unless he fights with some amateur they pick up on street.
Time to retire and stop acting like fighter when Khabib ended his fighting carrier long time ago.
Dana White is just keeping him on life support machine, to get a little more of his old glory and earn more money.

^ Everyone knows that Conor McGregor was juicing like a madman. Im sure whenever his movie comes out he will look like a monster. Thats why the fight isn’t happening anytime soon. He just announced he’s entering the testing pool, so he probably just got off the juice. He’ll shrink before the fight most certainly, but he’s still a beast.

Have you seen a video that speculates the sudden change of appearance of Conor McGregor, that is not a Natural Change and it was due to using Enhancing drugs and because of that injury he was taking a substance that can heal his injury fast, and the effect of Drinking that drug can change the appearance and his likely physique, just like the controversial The Liver King, that has said that he has a natural Physique but it is all because of taking some substance, for sure if those drugs won't come out from his system then there is no fight for Michael Chandler and Conor McGregor,


For sure we have different preferences for the fighters that we want but I really like Islam Makhachev as a fighter many prefer a fighter that speaks in English even Khabib Nurmagomenodov has said this to practice their English in what ever happen with their career and this could surely help his career in the UFC,


WOW! Thanks to these TopTort777 for sure I agree with the list as all of the featured fighters are legit fighting kitties, well, if only I got sendable for you but I only have 0 right now, but for sure I truly like what you have shared in here and so I was really happy about it, you truly remember me when you can see Beautiful fighting kitties,

Got a feeling Petroski is gonna grind Pereira against the cage for the first couple of rounds and get him tired.  By R3 both explosiveness and cardio will be down paving way for some striking.  Dunno, but I think Petroski could be a harder match up for Pereira than Barriault.  He hasn't fought a good wrestler and grappler before.

As for the event I think it's kinda decent.  Too bad Chris Duncan pulled out too.  I think he was the underdog vs McKinney...  Duncan would've been a good spot imho.

Maybe you are right about Dustin Poirier and I surely never gave him credit for those fights that he bounces back from but for me, his boxing is just really good and for sure Justin Gaethje just did awesome if he can not defeat the Boxing of Poirier then give him a punch with the follow-up kick on the face will be very effective for boxers, well I have seen Chandler went for a kick that his opponent never seen to KO him in an instant and this is what Michael Chandler is doing, for me I might give Chandler a chance,


For sure Paulo Costa doesn't want this fight to be canceled again that is why I think he didn't say it to the UFC, just so it would not get canceled well for sure he has back from his previous canceled fight against Ikram Aliskerov so for sure he can not afford to get this fight against Khamzat Chimaev get canceled as well because even if he lost this fight it will still be bigger pay for him for sure, so yeah Paulo Costa really need this fight it is a bigger ranking fighter and a bigger event for the UFC,

Yesterday I had some free time in the evening and scrolled Instagram in search for some good Reels. Found this: Top 10 Most Attractive UFC female active fighters! and saved it for YuginKadoya (in addition there are all their Instagrams mentioned ). Do you guys agree with the list?

Posting this just to "up" topic, as this weeks event lacks big names.

Usually fighters will be a little different after a knockout and that happens a lot among fighters. Regarding Dustin, I can't say whether it will affect his performance in the future or not because Justin's knockout defeat yesterday was the most brutal knockout Dustin experienced. A fighter will remember that moment a little when he is in the same situation in the next fight.

It is less than 2 weeks until UFC 294, and it was revealed that Paulo Costa had elbow surgery 3 weeks ago. That is just so stupid, you are a co-main event fighter and hide such things from your boss. Is it greed? Saying this so late so no one would replace you? Or the surgery was on a level of removing splinter ? Or this is a back-up plan (excuse) in case he looses or USADA find something besides "secret juice" in him?

It's got to be Chandler. As a rule, the TUF coaches are matched up against each other. Chandler must've gotten some promise from the UFC that he'll get that fight as he's not pursuing any other fights but just patiently waiting for McGregor. And Chandler's fighting style suits McGregor, he's more likely to win against Chandler than anyone else from the top of lightweight.


I think you're writing Poirier off a little bit too soon. There are some fighters that haven't been the same after a knockout, but Poirier has been KO'ed in a past (by Johnson or McGregor) but managed to bounce back nicely. There's no reason to think it'll be much different after KO from Gaethje (who also got KO'ed and that didn't stop his way to the top).

Is that Bobby Green  ? The man completely exceeded my expectations. A knockout in 33 seconds against a much younger fighter is something great. He could be used as McGregor's opponent if Dana White wants The Notorius to make a winning debut. Sorry I'm not underestimating Bobby but these are options I can think of. Bobby's victory could earn him an opponent in the top 10. And McGregor's debut, who else should he fight if he has to win to add a lot of money to Dana's pockets?

For sure many are looking forward to that Juicy Juicy Stacked card for the UFC 294: Makhachev vs. Oliveira 2 and for sure after this event right now it is the most waited event for the UFC in my opinion, right I feel like the event today is not that important for many MMA fans and like it is really a great card this year so many are excited about it,


Now that Justin Gaethje has knockout Dustin Poirier I think Gaethjhe has already exposed Poirier, to that point, and for sure Michael Chandler surely got a chance to prove that he can also defeat Poirier, but I really never know if Chandler can get other fights than Conor McGregor 1st fight that they have done for sure but let's just wait if this will happen,


I also like Islam Makhachev the way he was he doesn't really need hype for sure, and just like Khabib Nurmagomedov Makhachev is straight to the point he can rise to fame just because of his ability to fight and his strength with his wrestling but for sure he was shocked on how Alexander Volkanovski handle his wrestling for sure this is a new experience for him,

Many see Sergei Pavlovich as a pure striker, but apparently, he has some solid background in wrestling and sambo. I'd still think Aspinall would have more chances of defeating Jones, as he's a better all-round fighter with a solid ground game. He was born into the sport as his father is/was a BJJ instructor. Tom has won many bjj tournaments in the past but was also training wrestling and boxing as a kid. And most of all, he's hungry and super-determined right now.

Other news: Mateusz Gamrot has been confirmed as the backup fighter for UFC 294, Islam Vs Charles. I called it first!

This will definitely be a very exciting fight, and it is very possible that the fight between Conor vs Chandler will take place later than April 2024 because as reported by the USADA test it will be 6 months from now

I hope Conor's leg injury really heals completely, it would be really bad if he lost against Chandler because his leg injury recurred

I like silent fighters as well and just let their fists and legs do the talking inside the octagon. But people indeed have different personalities. Khabib has his own ways, he has a decent knowledge of English and he talks with confidence. I remember Anderson Silva has done the same although he did try to become a villain for obvious marketing purposes. Something likable could be interpreted as marketable. It is sad but it is the reality. Silent fighters and those who have difficulty speaking English usually do not have a huge market unless they are paired against popular fighters with huge fanbases.

Great fighters don't need bullshit, I like silent characters in the world of fighting except entertainment wrestling maybe they will play promos to attract the audience, Islam Makhachev is not a replica of Khabib so don't compare the two too much, they still have their own characters, but they are the greatest fighters and fighters undefeated, anyone has to admit their greatness, they ruined the opponent's undefeated record and any fighter who wants to increase the number of wins then don't oppose and accept the fight from Islam Makhachev.

At UFC 300 he has a card that will take place with Micheal chandler.
Maybe this will be the first time for McGregor after several years he decided to stop fighting after suffering quite embarrassing injury suffered in the fight against Dustin Poirier.

Now he really looks very fit and strong with very good physical changes I sure he will be able to last longer in the Las Vegas arena in April 2024.

But unfortunately this fight had a slight setback and many people even other UFC fighters thought it was waste of time when they had to wait for McGregor and could only do it next April because previously there were several rumors circulating that their fight would be held in 2023 but it turned out there was postponement and It can only be officially announced in April 2024.

I really think that the UFC has decided to make another stacked event for us, maybe he is getting rid of the events that have less consumer engagement and letting it all out with the Main event together for sure this also lets UFC save so much in stacking the best fight in one full card well, in my opinion, this event right now I really don't know if I interested in it or not but all I see was Michel Pereira VS Andre Petroski fight for sure I want that as a main event fight that what we have right now,


Yup! Barriault Withdrew from their fight without explaining why, if he got a health issue or something but that could be a potential banger but for sure this is also a great fight to get, I can not be choosy as for me there are no notable fight in this card,

For sure Islam Makhachev is not really a likable guy like Khabib Nurmagomedov, I really think it is because he doesn't talk that much and his English was bearly understandable, but just like you have said he is a great fighter for sure,


That is a long wait for Michael Chandler for sure he really wants this fight so badly and he needs to wait for it, for me  If I were Michael Chandler I would fight someone in the UFC just for the money fight the UFC have promised him something and he will get a lousy Conor McGregor,
